Ridgeline Raceway (Forge World Rally) Ridgeline Raceway Forge Race Map by Wraith2098 - YouTube Pictures, in order of the map Spoiler Ridgeline Raceway starts on Paradiso Island, runs along the ridgelines and over the top of Alaska and Montana, and down a death defying jump back to Paradiso Island. My best lap on this map is 1:52 can you beat me? I spent over four months on this race track tweaking nearly every last inch to ensure a smooth ride that is also very challenging. I was inspired by games like DIRT and my childhood game Test Drive Off Road. I wanted to emulate that wide open high speed environment with plenty of drive by visuals. This map is compatible with 16 players as seen in the video, but if you are looking for a more competitive race I would recommend 4-8 players max. I have a teleporting system I designed for this map. Instead of hitting a kill zone when you fall off, you'll be teleported back onto the track and immediately get back into the race. Here is a video of how it works, Ridgeline Raceway Teleporting System - YouTube I have changed one teleporter to avoid shortcuts. The last teleporter at the cannon jump has been moved back to where the checkpoint is instead of at the bottom of the jump. There are a few updates to the track since the videos/pictures but only minor aesthetic changes. Make sure you download the custom gametype (Warthog Race) as well! Let me know what you guys think, and post your best lap times! Enjoy!
this looks amazing, i love the jump, how do you get that many warthogs, could you show me (batting girly eyelashes).
First of all, wtf kind of music choice is the first song in your video? Seriously... Secondly, I have seen enough warthogs in your post to satisfy me for the rest of my life. On to the track. It was pretty fun with all the jumps you have in there. It had a good flow for Warthogs (didn't try it with anything else), and I could really see it being a blast with a lot of people. I'm not sure how competitive it can be with that huge jump being inconsistent. You could have done some other things, but they wouldn't have been as grand in scale, so I can't really complain about that too much. It is pretty magical when you land it. The only real suggestion I have is to include more turns, whether they be banked in the sky or terrain. Even though Warthogs struggle with turns, driving straight gets old after a while even with all those little jumps in there. Overall, it looks like a fun map to race on with a big party, but I don't think I would want to try anything too competitive on it.
Considering you listen to August Burns Red I'm surprised you didn't know that's between the buried and me. I land that jump every time unless I hit the ramp sloppy. That jump was only missed a few times with 16 people racing. I find this to be a very competitive race every time, depending on the drivers skill level. Generally off road racing is based more on who runs a better line and takes each turn more precisely. Also hard to add any turns considering I'm out of anything I could make a turn out of. Videos been updated with new music, Metallica is still there [br][/br]Edited by merge: I went back and checked the jump and for whatever reason the jump got altered. I fixed it and it should work fine now. Please re-download
First of all, epic feedback. Secondly, This is an awesome track. So much so I created an account to congratulate you. This raceway, Ridgeline, was Designed exclusively for the Hog and it's strengths; climbing, side-swiping, jumping, mudding, abuse. Puts this track in the 4x4 / Monster Truck Class. Everything about this drips Warthog. This is pedal to the metal. I find no complaints. The cinematography in the trailer was absolute top notch, but way too long. And he's right about the song. I remixed it. Now It's cool.. This is a trophy track.
Very impressive design and I like the layout a lot. the expansiveness of the map amazing. Not to many maps go this large scale. The fact you added the teleporters so no one cheats is a great touch. The jumps and all that make it to be a impressive map indeed. to be honest i can't wait to play it.
I gotta admit you are right about the video being lengthy and somewhat boring. It was only my second time working on a video, ever. So I got to practicing my editing skills and spliced the clips together to make a more cinematic video. Check the top of my first post to watch the updated video (Video is still processing so 1080P will be available shortly).
Very nice videos. I love the teleporter idea. Its amazing. This map really seems it hit the next level and this map really should be one of the top race tracks out there. Mongoose lovers or warthog lovers, everyone will love this map. Great job man!
Thanks McGreen, the teleporting system was actually a last second addition that almost got scrapped because trucks were flying out of the sender nod uncontrollably. Fortunately I figured out how to keep the trucks from flying out at a thousand miles per hour haha. I'm glad it got figured out because the track has a lot more energy with this system on it. Before, you would just fall off, hit the kill zone, and wait to respawn. Problem was, by then you're pretty much out of the battle unless there's a major wreck. Once again, thanks for the feedback. Always nice to hear what your opinions are on the track, good or bad.
